Amer Amikhteh submitted an update to the
BabelBidi
package.

Summary description: An extension to babel’s bidirectional support
Announcement text: ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 0.6.0 extends BabelBidi's user-level bidirectional interfaces with directed footnote text and title notes, footnote direction controls, list and bibliography direction, margin-note controls, and two-column ordering. It also adds the `RTLcases` environment and configurable counter separators.
The new `extrafootnotefeatures` option enables paragraph and two- to ten-column footnote layouts. These are implemented natively with LuaTeX and pdfTeX and use the corresponding `bidi` facilities with XeTeX.
The documentation has also been substantially expanded to cover the new interfaces and their engine-specific behaviour.
